  1. A lift station is to be designed to handle wastewater flows ranging from 400 gpm to 1500 gpm. The influent sewer invert elevation is 600 ft. The discharge line is 2,000 ft long with a high point elevation of 625 ft. A wet well diameter of 10 ft is to be used. Recommend the pump capacity, the number of pumps, and the TDH.

Assume the following:

     Maximum number of pump starts per hour = 5

     Hazen-Williams C = 100.

     Hydraulic losses in the pump station = 14 ft

     Freeboard allowance for influent sewer = 1 ft

A closed loop overhead conveyor must be designed to deliver parts from a load station to an unload station. The specified flow rate of parts between the two stations is 320 parts/hr. The conveyor has carriers spaced at a center-to-center distance that is to be determined. Each carrier holds one part. Forward and return loops are each 75 m. Conveyor speed is 0.6 m/s. Minimum feasible times to load and unload parts at the respective stations is 0.16 min for...
